Leadership & Buildership

Posted on 14 July, 2010 at 9:06am with no comments

An arti­cle I read a few months back began a think­ing process I’ve been thor­oughly enthralled by. It was writ­ten by Umair Haque and pub­lished in the Har­vard Busi­ness Review last Decem­ber.

There was one phrase in this part of the book that really stuck out.

Sus­tain­ing our­selves in the aware­ness of the present risen­ness of Jesus is a costly deci­sion that requires more courage than intelligence.

That makes my bones shake. Here is the rest of the excerpt, I’ll just let what Brennan’s words do what they are intended to do.
